Abstract

Mercedes-Benz aimed to produce a rival to the Range Rover with its M-class vehicle. It does not match the Range Rover in off-road performance, but the company discovered that less than 5% of off-road vehicles are used off-road. However, the M-class is almost 9,000 pounds sterling cheaper than the most basic Range Rover, and it performs better on the road. The M-class, despite its two-tonne weight, feels like a car to the driver. It is faster than all its rivals, the suspension gives a smooth ride, the steering is precise, and the performance of the V6 engine and gearbox is smooth and refined.
